The plenary session, a secretive closed-door convention of ​the highest-ranking officials ​from the party’s Central Committee, ‌runs ⁠until Thursday. Analysts view the plenum as potentially the last major ​party ​gathering ⁠before its 2027 leadership reshuffle, ​offering President ​Xi ⁠Jinping an opportunity to shore up authority ⁠and ​enforce ideological ​uniformity.
